Steve Elcock: The Cage of Opprobrium (world premiere)
The composer writes:
In the town of Levoča stands a 16th century metal pillory in the form of a cage, known as “the cage of opprobrium”. It was used to punish women found walking unaccompanied in the streets after dark. They were usually locked in the cage for 24 hours.
This cage immediately struck me as being shot through with powerful tensions that demanded musical expression. Firstly, because the opprobrium, or shame, should more properly be heaped on the head of those who had invented such a cruel instrument of torture, and not on that of the young women it was designed to punish. Secondly, because the cage is decorated with hearts and lilies, symbols of love and innocence. It is hard to reconcile such symbols with the intention behind the pillory.
In “The Cage of Opprobrium” I have not attempted to resolve these contradictions in any way, but have tried to express them in music that is by turns angry and heartbroken. The work is in five sections, alternating slow and fast music, with the two fast parts being to some extent developments of the opening. In the slow sections, the writing makes the instruments sound old and strained, as if the pain of ages is keeping them from sounding in tune any more.
In the cage, the girl sighs, dances, sings, screams and mourns.
